I've just bought an nv8 note acceptor for my deal or no deal machine and fitted it but can't get it to work. Tried all the different settings but no joy. The light on the acceptor pulses on some settings but it just takes the notes a little bit then spits it out. I've pressed hopper top up so its nothing to do with that. Should i be doing anything else. Cheers, Dan

Been looking at the technical manual i got with the acceptor and it says if the green led is flashing slowly (which it is) then it is in RUN mode and ready to accept notes but i'm guessing i need to tell the machine that i've fitted it by pressing a button or entering a code? Anybody any ideas? Cheers, Dan

What switches are on, (on the note acceptor itself)

Make sure sw 1&2 are down (off) and 3&4 are up, this set it to cctalk mode

I'm assuming it should be cctalk, how many wires are on the plug to the acceptor? (4 if cctalk)

If it's a Scorpion 5 machine with the CC talk security update then DIL switch 13 on the main Scorpion 5 MPU needs to be set to ON (turn off the machine before setting this). If this is OFF you get the error you are describing
